====== ffmpeg - Subtitles - Font too large ======

Use **text** instead of **srt**, otherwise the output font sometimes becomes huge.

Need to change **-c:s srt subtitle.srt** to **-c:s text subtitle.srt**.

----

===== Map a Subtitle =====

<code bash>
ffmpeg -i -map 0:s? -c:s copy                                          # To copy a Subtitle.
ffmpeg -i -map 0:s? -c:s srt                                           # To convert the Subtitle to srt.
ffmpeg -i -map 0:s? -c:s text                                          # To convert the Subtitle to text.
ffmpeg -nostats -loglevel 0 -i subtile.ass -y -c:s srt subititle.srt   # To convert ass subtitles to srt.
</code>

<WRAP info>
**NOTE:**  The **srt** conversion, can result in huge text.

  * Therefore, it is recommended to use the **text** conversion

</WRAP>

Use:

<code bash>
-c:s text
</code>

Instead of 

<code bash>
-c:s srt
</code>

<WRAP info>
**NOTE:** SRT, as opposed to ASS, does not contain style information. 

  * The subtitle font and font size will need to be configured in the playback software. 

  * An example of srt line:<code bash>
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:59,080
<font size="55">subtitle text</font> 
</code>
